Release Date: March 2021
Production: 895 Cases.
Varietals: Syrah 90%, Petite Sirah 10%
Alcohol: 13%
Terrior: Jerusalem Mountains, limestone.
Ella Valley, terra rossa and limestone.
Winemaking: Fermented in small, open top
tanks, with frequent punch down. About
60% of the grapes were fermented with
their stalks (as “Vendange entière” or
“Whole bunch” fermentation). Skin contact
is limited to the duration of fermentation
extracting the purest expression of the
carefully chosen fruit. The wine was aged in
French oak barrels for 18 months.
Tasting Notes: Black pepper, Lavender and
Mediterranean herbs. This full-bodied wine
has an extraordinary acidity and structure,
and a long and sensual floral finish.
This wine will age well for a decade and beyond.
